DeJesus is the kind of player area scouts love but crosscheckers take longer to warm to. In other words, it takes time to truly appreciate his talent. He has excellent instincts for the game, plays hard and does everything by the book. He doesn't have outstanding tools, but power is the only one he really lacks. He hit just two homers this season for Rutgers.
